'Be it known that we, BYRON ELIJAH CAGLE and MATTHEW LINCOLN- CAGLE,citizens of the United States, residing at Mountainair, in the county ofTorrance and State of New Mexico, have invented a new and usefulPumping-lllachine, `of which the following is a specification.

Our invention relatesvto improvements in rotary pumps, and the object ofour invention is to use three forces conjunctively, namely, directcontact, centrifugal and suction force in the same machine in order loetliciently raise any given quantity of water.

We attain this object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanyingdrawing, in which Figure 1 is a view of the pump partly in section, andFig. 2 of the drawing is a ver tical view of the casing, the lowerportion thereof being broken away.4 Fig. 3 is a horizontal section takenon line 3113 of Fig. 1. The pump is essentially an auger incased andrig-idly secured in an air tight cylinder, and provided with an annularair tight conduit pipe to discharge the water as is illustrated by SS inFig. 2 of the drawing.

' InFig. 1 the framework F is simply a support for the pump properwhereby it may be suspended over a creek or pond for pumping. The mainshaft H is provided at the vbase with a'pivotal bearing and Iis providedat the top with a suitable collar bearing B, and having' a pulley Pattached to said shaft for rotating the same. In Fi g. l it is shown howthe two first named forces are utilized, that is the direct contactforce. which is secured by the helical blade (f Fig. l) or flanges ofthe auger coming in contact with the water when the machine is set inmotion, and the second or centrifugal force is secured by the highmomentum of the machine whereby the water is thrown to the periphery andforced upward by the force of the water from below-the lower end of thecasinar C being left open to allow l of the inward How of the water.-

The third and main force' of suction is obtained bythe annular conduittube SS illustrated by the drawing. Thisv conduit may be of any size andlength so as to dispose of the water as fast asl it reachse the topofthe cylinder or casing C. The chief function vof the conduit tube isto create suction and 1s made in circular or sem1-c1rcular form. Thisforce of suction is brought about and pliere on the two extreme ends ofthe pump, the outlet oi,d'ischarge port of the vcircular ronduit tubelSSwhen in operation revolving' at a high speed, and away from the airpressure, and the intake or pressure of the air at the intake port beingnormal the waterY Wherefore what we claim and desire to secure byLetters Patentis..

A rotary pump comprising a cylinder closed at one end and open at theother end to provide a fluid inlet and having adjacent its closed end aperipheral port, a casing having' a discharge port and rigidly connectedto said cylinder adjacent its closed end and forming therewith anannular con .duit which surrounds and is of less axial extent than saidcylindenand communicates at one end with said peripheral poi-t and atits other end with said discharge port, helical blade rigidly' connectedto said cyinder, and means for' rotating said parts,-

whereby luid is impellcd through said cylinder, and dischargedccntrifugally through Isaid discharge port;
